On form I 485 near the beginning of the form, it asks for the A number (if any). Maria entered on a K1, and I'm not familiar with what they are calling an A number. I just looked at the small white card stapled on her Visa in her Passport and discovered it is the I94 they refer to. On the back of the I94 there is a number written that starts with an A. Is this the A number they are referring to on the I 485?

I was a bit shocked when I looked at the instructions for the I 485 and saw a filing fee of almost one thousand dollars. I didnt misunderstand that by any chance, did I?

One place to find the A number is on the NOA2. It is typed above the beneficiary's name. It might be the number on the I-94, but I'm not certain.

Yes, you are correct. The filing fee for AOS is $1010. That includes AOS, AP and EAD. Make sure you submit all 3 at the same time.

I believe it will be under Annotation on her Visa :thumbs: Yes the Alien number is written on the back of the I-94 :)

Edit to Add: Yes, the AOS fee is quite expensive ;)

an alien number on i94??really? its the first time i hear that...where would it be exactly please?

o i just realize i have a i94w cause i'm on waiver program...is it the same?

VWP entrants would not be assined an A# (Alien Registration Number)

I just looked at the small white card stapled on her Visa in her Passport and discovered it is the I94 they refer to. On the back of the I94 there is a number written that starts with an A. Is this the A number they are referring to on the I 485? :yes:

I was a bit shocked when I looked at the instructions for the I 485 and saw a filing fee of almost one thousand dollars. I didnt misunderstand that by any chance, did I? You understood it correctly. More if there are children involved.
